CANDIDATE STATEMENTS FOR
MEMBER, CUPERTINO CITY COUNCIL
CLAUDIO BONO
Occupation: Managing Director Age: 52
Education and Qualifications:
As a resident and General Manager of a Cupertino based business, I have seen our city thrive. Cupertino had always embodied what is best about Silicon Valley, but today we have lost our momentum. Residents are making sacrifices to respond to our extraordinary cost of living and increased traffic, while a vocal minority are obstructing our progress, fighting with City Staff, delaying improvements, and costing taxpayers. We deserve common sense solutions and meaningful action to address our budget deficit. It's time to move Cupertino forward.
I've already engaged my business skills to bring millions of hotel tax dollars to Cupertino. I serve at the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce, Cupertino Historical Society, Rotary and the Cupertino Parks and Recreation Commission to help confront challenges and deliver results.
I will lead the fight to regain local control and ensure any future development is compatible with existing neighborhoods. I will implement sensible spending and support small business to keep our tax dollars local. And, I'll bring the successful retail and restaurant experiences we all yearn for. I am endorsed by Assemblymember Evan Low and Former Cupertino mayors: Richard Lowenthal, Orrin Mahoney, and Sandy James. Cupertino is our home. Let's move Cupertino forward together! www.bono4cupertino2024.com
